Happy Monday!
This week we will be rehearsing for our Thanksgiving show, we will be learning new vocabulary about the parts of our body, and understanding the concepts of these new words.
Our group has reached many of the goals I have proposed for this month and I am very happy to share this with you.
Please let me know if you would like to have a sibling picture taken before Wednesday Picture Day, a sign up sheet is also available at the front door.

Thank you parents for your support.

Week of November 8th - 12th

Hola Parents,
First of all we would like to thank you for your constant support through
this painful moment our family is going through. We really appreciate all
your thoughts and prayers.
 
Update for Monitos Class:
 
The theme for this month is "This is me", we will be working on
recognizing parts of our body, with activities that will help us learn in
Spanish the words that represent them.
This week we will be rehearsing for our thanksgiving show, and it will be
very helpful if you ask your child to sing for you. The song we will be
singing is "Yo soy el pavo" (I am a turkey).
For this show I will need your child wearing yellow and brown colors, for
the rest of the outfit I will need $ 1.00 to buy the wings that I will
decorate as feathers. Please let me know if you would like to help me with
this project.
 
Wednesday November 17th is Picture Day!!! Our class will be taking their
pictures starting at 10:00 a.m.
We will begin around 9:00 a.m with children that do not attend this day.
Children come in wearing their clothes for the picture (which can be
anything you want- does not have to be uniform). Please do bring a change
of clothes to change them after the picture is taken.
 
Thank you!!
Miss Gloria and Miss Mercedes

Week of November 1st. - November 5th.


Happy week to you all! I hope you had a great weekend after the great party we had on Friday. Gracias to Ms. Leonor and Ms. Marilyn for helping out in the class.
Our children have been introduced to the use of the scissors. They are safe and appropriate for their age. We are working some skills that will improve their fine motor skills and creativity as following lines up and down with the marker and the scissors.
 “This is me” is the subject for November and we are going to work with a lot of adjectives like :
Alto = tall
Bajo = short
Educado = polite
And a lot of nouns:
Los ojos = the eyes
La nariz – the nose
Las orejas = the ears
La boca = the mouth
La cabeza = the head
Las piernas = the legs
Los brazos = the rams
Los hombros = the shoulders
Las manos= the hands
Los pies = the feet
Los dedos = the fingers and the toes
Also ,we are preparing for our Thanksgiving presentation. We can’t wait  for it.

Thank you
Ms Gloria & Ms Mercedes
